King - Mastiff Dog for Adoption in Austin, Texas

King is a big, goofy puppy born in May and ready to find his family! He’s playful, energetic, food motivated, and already knows “sit.” He loves romping around the yard and playing chase with his sister and 35 lb foster brother, and he’s also great at entertaining himself with toys.

King has lived with dogs and cats in foster. He means well with the little guys, but he’s still learning how big he is, so very small dogs or cats would need to be confident and comfortable around an enthusiastic puppy.

He’s making great progress with house training and has been sleeping through the night. He can be sensitive to unfamiliar noises and gets sad when his person initially leaves the room, but he settles well at bedtime and while his foster is away at work. He’s still very much a baby learning about the world!

At about 35 lbs at the beginning of October, King has plenty of growing left to do. If you’re ready for a mastiff puppy and all love, laughs, positive training, and growing that comes with one- King would love to meet you.
